This is a notebook intended to explain at large what we have done with PRSIM on the Outaouais River Watershed. First of all, let’s get an idea of the area of study.
Figure 1: Outaouais river watershed
The watershed surface is about 140 000 and consists of 42 basins. On the Outaouais river watershed we can find infrastructures that are designed to withstand PMF, 1:10 000 and 1:1 000 return year floods depending on the canadian dam classification.
Our main interest in PRSIM is the fact that spatial and temporal intercorrelations are taken into account while producing the stochastic simulations.
In our first trials with PRSIM we found out that for some basins certain unrealistic peakflows where simulated. Even for extreme cases. In fact, some 1:100 year peakflows where higher than our PMF (Probable maximum flood). In order to continue to explore the generation, we limited the kappa generation function to 0.9995 right-side limit. With this modification, we found out more realistic hydrogram shapes and the statistics up to 1:100 years return peakflow was coherent with what we calculated using the observations. is this a correct procedure?
As said before, in order to explore our simulations we first calculated the marginal return periods at each basin of the Outaouais following the cunnane plotting positions and compare them to our inferences on the observed data.
The next table is our simulated peakflow during spring for return periods up to 10 000 year flood:

As you can see, in some watersheds the right tail is pretty ‘flat’. See at Rapide-2. Meaning that the difference in between the extreme quantiles is not very large.

As you will see in our summary statistic analyses, sometimes the observations entries show higher peaks than the simulations. Specially during summer. This time again, it’s Rapide-2.
Next, I compared the extent of the 170 000 prsim simulations light green font and also the mean green line. The observations forced into PRSIM (57 years) are in red. I plotted the maximum, the mean and the minimum.
I will show some of the 43 basins. As you can see, most of the means seem to be well simulated.
